Teachings of Jesus

God Does Not Condemn

“And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son.
“But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet.
“And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry: For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.”

The great lesson to learn here is that God never reproaches and never condemns. God did not say to the returning son, “You miserable sinner, you are no more worthy to be called my son.” He did not say, “I will see what I can do about saving your lost soul. I will spill the blood of my precious son in hopes that by this atonement your life may be made eternal.” He did not say, “You are a worm of the dust and I will grind you under my feet in order that you may know that I am God and the supreme power of the universe.” NO GOD DID NOT SAY ANY OF THESE ATROCIOUS THINGS! What the father did say was, “Bring forth quickly the best robe, and put it on him: and put a ring on his hand and shoes on his feet.” Here Jesus is showing that God is Love and knows nothing about hate.
